Hello Ljs,
I am making a sliding-door hideout organizer for my brother in law’s new house. The door panel is made out of veneer (one out of mixed variety pack) I bought many years ago at woodcraft. Just in case someone might ask what type of wood I used, I seek your help identifying this veneer.
Thank you.

I’m not sure if other Ljs was ahead of me. Just to find out what will you do or what is your first reaction when you find your bank account shows a balance of $88,888,888,888.88?
Me? first I will be fainted for 5hrs. and what is next?....I don’t know…really.

Hi all,This is my first attempt at making knife handle.

In making a furniture, sometime we begin with the idea, translate it into sketch drawings by incorporating the concepts (if any) with the usage, materials used, finish and colour. It is indeed a tedious process and time consuming. And sometime we make a scale model or even full size mockup to visualize the dimensions and proportions of every par...

Ok this is not really a joke, but most of us have funny idea when come to problem solving esp. concerning machine tools.
